    • BURIAL:

      SOURCE:- Ind/Congreg Ch, Upper Gornal.

      CENSUS:
      Sedgley 1851, Summer Lane, Lower Gornal, HO107 2030 263 20 Sedgley 1861, Summer Lane, Lower Gornal, RG09 2047 111 16
      Sedgley 1871, 55 Ruiton St, Lower Gornal, RG10 3009 15 24
      Sedgley 1881, 75 Ruiton St, Lower Gornal, RG11 2873 88 25
      Sedgley 1891, 20 Ruiton St, Lower Gornal, RG12 2291 128 11
      Sedgley 1901, 20 Ruiton St, Lower Gornal, RG13 2739 55 10
      John is probably buried in the Ind/Congreg Ch, Upper Gornal, although this has not yet been confirmed. Mary Cartwright (RIN 150) stated that Eliza Ann (John's wife) was brought back to this church for burial in the family grave, so it is assumed that John is buried there too. However, Bill Adams could find no burial entry for her husband, John Westwood. Eliza Ann was listed as Elizabeth Ann on the burial entry.
